While I applaud the pharmacists response to the robbers
attempt I also would suggest she acquire a stronger more
permanent means of protection. Apparently this was the
third time this waste of skin has come in to this pharmacy
to rob them. The bear spray may have deterred the third
attempt, it will not however prevent a fourth visit from
the addict....and the next time the addict may return with
a gun and transform himself from armed robber to murderer.
This is in the UK. Guns are not an option unless you’re willing to become a criminal yourself in the process.
